The soon-to-be artistic director of the Old Vic returns to the Royal Shakespeare Company after 14 years to offer a blockbuster Hamlet.

Goold makes some daring choices, placing a lot of faith in his public and letting them interpret and assume certain twists in his vision.

We discussed how Shakespeare has been a part of his acting career since he first auditioned for the National Youth Theatre, how one should treat the work of Shakespeare and even how he connects with Polonius as a father himself!
